Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) didn’t back away from her comments about Donald Trump during an appearance on “The Late Show With Stephen Colbert” on Wednesday night.

“We have an economy that is in real trouble. But when the economy is in this kind of trouble, calling on Donald Trump for help is like if you’re house is on fire, calling an arsonist to come help out,” Warren said.

Stephen Colbert asked if her Twitter tirade was stooping to Trump’s level.

“Come on, this isn’t name-calling. This is taking the credential that he claims he’s running on and that is his business success and saying, ‘No, buster, we’re not buying that,'” Warren told Colbert. “He is not a business success. He’s a business loser.”
